[QUOTE="witzend, post: 564245, member: 99"] Amitriptyline is one of the original anti-depressants in the tricyclic class of medications. It's often used for things like itching or neuralgia or to prevent migraines. It's super cheap. With the newer SRIs and such, Amitriptyline is not prescribed very often. It has a [I]strong[/I] hypnotic/sleep inducing affect that for many people just can't handle, me included. When I took it years ago, I'd take one and go to bed at night and struggle out of bed the next day. I'd feel awake about 5 - 6 PM. Honestly, I think that just about [I]any[/I] medication that induces sleep is going to be a **** shoot so far as how quickly the sleep will settle in and how quickly it will leave your body. [/QUOTE]
